Dearest Lord Pollock;

you seem to heavily wax your shoos sir, what type of polish are you using? The polishing job looks really unusual and eye catching.

My handmades came with flat wax laces. Do you have any idea of the year they might have been made? No interior marking anymore (sorry).

Regards sir: The Shooman.

Those are nice Meister. Were they made in the 70s?

I suspect later from the quality and the spade on them is mild compared with earlier versions. More like the last years of manufacture like 1990s. They were USD1000 a pair retail in the 90s.

No secret. I got them from a guy called greekgeek on styleforum.net who gets a lot of classic NOS or near NOS US classic/vintage shoes.
